His entire approach is one of disgust and misogyny when it comes to Black women. He runs a website that is full of hate filled toxic Black men, that make postings so venomous its unbelievable... the likes of which I have never seen and I've been on the web since the Compuserve days in the early 1990s!  Sadly, there seems to be a backlash against Black women all over this country by Black men. Nothing we as a group is good enough. Nothing we say is right. The blame for every ill in the Black community (including the lack of committed relationships and high number of single parent homes), is laid at the feet of Black women by Tim and his crew. Since no child I ever heard of got here without the involvement of both a male and female, the rantings on that site by Tim and his backup team against Black women make no sense. Not one of those fellas stuck in a "baby daddy" situation wants to own up to his role in the nonsense. Instead, Black women "should keep their legs closed."  WTF year is this, 1750? Your review was kind. Tim should be happy it was you posting the review and not me. His eyes would have burst into flames from the firey words I would have used to describe that trash.

No it doesnt, one is good enough, believe that pinky. You dont have to be saint to get wronged by a devil, and just like black women were not born angry i am pretty sure black men were not born hating women, it usually takes about two to three of the wrong kind from the opposite sex to make you think that. And it takes a real honest person to know that it's all BS, and to take them one at a time. Funny how every one has it all figured out before they have seen the movie. “It takes 2 people to make AND BRAKE a relationship.”

At the other women. lol. I love how your open-minded about dating, but not open-minded about watching the movie. watch the movie, then come back and speak about it. I feel that it is unfortunate that the only clip you ever see of the movie is him with the white chick in the car. But that really has nothing to do with the crux of the movie at all. @Jose – Grow UP.

Yawn! Seriously, from reading the blog posts that is what you come off as. Looking at your pictures, I can tell that you aren't what Black Guys are looking for. So you have to settle for White Guys. Yes, I said it. It's so true. I've dated Black Women, who it was obvious wanted to be with Black Men but the Black Men where to busy with the White Women and Asian Women. So you put up this blog to make yourself feel better about having to settle. You are doing a great job. Yet another self hating black girl … Yawn!

It takes 2 people to make AND BRAKE a relationship. So, yes, I find your depiction (and possible understanding) of human relationships rather shallow. These women weren't born angry and if you are making a story about their anger you must address the source. I am just not buying into your idea that the saintly husband had nothing to do with the anger coming his way. Good luck with your fim Tim,
